I am a licensed clinical psychologist providing private pay therapy to adults experiencing high-functioning anxiety, depression, burnout, and life transitions. I work with clients who may appear successful externally but feel overwhelmed, depleted, or emotionally stuck internally. Common concerns include chronic stress, overwhelm, relationship difficulties, sleep problems, and periods of personal or professional change. I previously worked in corporate and government settings, informing my work with professionals navigating workplace stress, leadership pressures, and work-life balance.
I earned both my Ph.D. and M.A. from the Illinois Institute of Technology, Institute for Psychology, with a primary background in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I integrate CBT, solution-focused strategies, mindfulness, and psychoeducation to help clients understand patterns, build effective coping tools, and create meaningful, sustainable change.
I work with adults in individual therapy. My approach is collaborative, evidence-based, and practical, meeting clients where they are and tailoring treatment to their values, needs, and goals. Clients can expect therapy to be thoughtful, confidential, and grounded in respect. I welcome you to reach out by email to inquire about scheduling a consultation.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and evidence based approaches. We'll start with building a general toolkit of wellness practices and targeting your experiences in the here and now. With time, we will more formally look at how your thoughts, feelings, and behavioral responses inform recurring patterns. I'll help you more intentionally learn how to change your responses for the better.
